Your Ultimate Pit Stop

We’ve completely redesigned the 2025 Strix SCAR 16 to make upgrades easier than ever. This tool-less design allows for simple access to both the RAM, SSD, and fans, and we’ve also brought our latest Q-latch system here for those SSD slots. Like an experienced pit crew, you can remove and replace your SSD and RAM in seconds, having the machine back up and running without missing a lap. A specially designed frame covers the rest of the mainboard to protect the other components, but can easily be removed with a few screws for users who want to tinker further.

For more information on how to upgrade SSDs & RAM, please check out the official 2025 ROG Strix Tutorial Video from ASUS Support

Q-Latch System

M.2 SSDs are incredibly small and versatile, but the traditional mounting system involves tiny standoffs and screws that can be difficult to manipulate. ROG solved this problem with Q-Latch, a system that first debuted on our award-winning desktop motherboards. Q-Latch uses a simple, tool-less plastic hinge to securely retain your M.2 SSDs, no screwdriver required.

Limitless Connectivity

We’ve also equipped the Strix SCAR 16 with dual Thunderbolt™ 5 ports, which offers the latest in high bandwidth connectivity, up to 3X compared to Thunderbolt™ 4. With a diverse ecosystem of devices and peripherals compatible over USB-C, including support for power delivery, high-resolution display output, and support for the latest docking stations, Thunderbolt™ 5 is the easiest way to turn your SCAR 16 into a true battlestation.

We’ve completely revamped the cooling solution of the 2025 Strix SCAR 16 with precise calculations in mind to ensure that you get the best gaming experience with your machine, every time. We relocated all of the exhaust vents to the rear of the hinge, keeping warm air away from your mousing hand. The sides and bottom of the machine act as an air intake, creating a natural, efficient path for airflow. Air also flows through the keyboard deck, keeping your hands cooler during intense gaming sessions. When pairing an end-to-end vapor chamber with a sandwiched heatsink, Tri-Fan Technology, and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both CPU & GPU, the 2025 Strix SCAR 16 achieves a lower noise level in Turbo Mode compared to the previous generation, while still offering the same calculated excellence you expect from a Strix SCAR machine.

End-to-end Vapor Chamber

We’ve used vapor chambers in our high-end ROG machines before, but the component inside the heart of the 2025 Strix SCAR 16 is truly special. We’ve designed a vapor chamber with different layers to more accurately match the layout of the motherboard, for maximum contact on the CPU and GPU. We also pushed the vapor chamber all the way to the rear of the chassis, sandwiching it between the upper and lower heatsinks to further optimize heat dissipation.

A sketch of SCAR laptop’s vapor chamber and thermal solution.

Sandwiched heatsink

The entire rear portion of the Strix SCAR 16 is dedicated to its full-width heatsink. The upper and lower sections are built from 0.1mm thick copper fins, for a total surface area of 169388 mm². This sandwiched design uses all available space for the densely packed fins, giving the SCAR 16 ultra-efficient thermal performance without increasing bulk.

A sketch of SCAR laptop’s heatsink system.

Tri-Fan Technology

Our cutting-edge Tri-Fan Technology directs air though precisely calculated cutouts in the chassis, sending airflow directly towards internal components to keep them cool in all conditions. A third auxiliary fan sends additional heat from the GPU and VRAM directly to the heatsinks, keeping the machine cool during long video renders or gaming sessions.

Conductonaut Extreme Liquid Metal

The Strix SCAR 16 features Thermal Grizzly’s cutting-edge Conductonaut Extreme, which improves upon the already incredible heat transfer found in standard liquid metals. Compared to traditional thermal pastes, this indium- and gallium-based compound offers 17X higher conductivity, in addition to CPU and GPU temperature reductions of up to 15 degrees. Used exclusively by ROG, this material offers the highest thermal transfer available on a laptop.

CoolZone keyboard

Extended gaming sessions can heat up internal components and make the keyboard warm to the touch. The SCAR 16 boasts the largest airflow cutouts we’ve ever added to a laptop, which allows the fans to draw in fresh air from above and through the keyboard deck. This keeps your fingers cool during marathon gaming sessions, while also improving overall system airflow.

Dust Filter

The ROG Strix SCAR 16 features a dust filter on its intake vents. Dust and fibers can collect inside the machine, trapping heat and causing degraded performance over time. A filter helps keep dust out, allowing the CPU and GPU to breathe easier for years of smooth and stable operation.

*Internal testing in a simulated dusty environment.

Scenario Profiles

Our Silent, Performance, and Turbo modes are just the beginning. Scenario Profiles allow your system to automatically switch between these modes based on the application you're running, alongside other vital system settings. Switch between lighting configurations automatically, disable the Windows key and touchpad during games, and automate to your heart's content. Armoury Crate makes adjustments in an instant to best fit the task at hand.

Your laptop’s display is a window into new worlds, which is why we put the absolute best on our ROG Strix SCAR 16. This ROG Nebula HDR display with Mini LED technology features over 2000 dimming zones, 1200 nits of peak brightness, and beautiful colors thanks to 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space. The 2025 SCAR 16 has also been upgraded with a brand-new dual ACR layer, which reduces reflections and enhances contrast by 4.5X for incredibly vivid colors. When combined with our own Nebula HDR engine, this display ensures every game and movie is done true justice. And with a blazing fast refresh rate of 240Hz and full NVIDIA G-SYNC support, motion will be incredibly smooth, allowing you to see every enemy before they see you.

ACR Technology

This year, we even added two layers of Ambient Contrast Ratio film to the display, which reduces reflections by 55% and provides up to 4.5x better contrast, ensuring the image stays punchy, vivid, and accurate. A second layer boosts viewing angle for a 180° ultra-clear view, providing an image that looks just as good off-center as it does straight on. This machine doesn't just perform at a high level – it draws you into the visuals, with colors so realistic it’s as if you were right in the middle of the action.

Dolby Vision Technology

Scene to scene, frame to frame, Dolby Vision makes media look better. The technology improves on standard 4K high dynamic range (HDR) video, dynamically adjusting visuals to make every image in front of you richer, brighter, and livelier. Creators can film and edit their streams, videos, and other content in a format commonly used by industry professionals.

Pantone Color Validation

Each IPS-level display is factory-calibrated to ensure that colors are accurate to the Pantone^® palette. Artists, designers, and content creators can add high-quality content to their portfolios and enjoy richer gaming visuals all on the same machine.

A chart showing that DCI-P3 covers a wider color gamut.

100% DCI-P3 Color Coverage

While the sRGB color space is the standard for most digital visuals, it only represents about 75% of the DCI-P3 spectrum used for professional filmmaking. Displays with complete DCI-P3 coverage offer a wide color gamut for more vibrant images, letting you see films and other media exactly the way they were meant to be experienced.

A comparison image showing the difference that the refresh rate can synchronize with GPU’s frame rate with Adaptive Sync Technology reducing motion tearing.

NVIDIA G-SYNC

Nothing breaks in-game immersion like stuttering and tearing. GPUs render frames at variable rates, but displays usually refresh at a constant clip, so they can get out of sync, causing visible hitching and artifacts that pull you out of the action. With Adaptive Sync, the refresh rate of the display synchronizes with the GPU’s frame rate to eliminate visual tearing, minimize stuttering, and reduce input lag. Get ready to experience gameplay that looks and feels more natural than ever.

DisplayHDR™1000

Supports HDR technology across a range of luminance (up to 1000cd/m2) to deliver a wider color range and higher contrast than traditional monitors. The brightest whites and the darkest blacks bring out details like never before. This monitor delivers contrast performance that passes DisplayHDR™ 1000 certification. To ensure color accuracy, each ROG monitor is factory pre-calibrated.

TÜV Rheinland Certification

Displays emit light across a broad spectrum that unfortunately includes some less desirable wavelengths. Our Nebula Display protects your eyes by reducing blue light before it leaves the screen, preventing eyestrain during long gaming or content creation sessions.

The ROG Strix SCAR 16 is a good gaming machine, but given its weight and dimensions, in my opinion, it's not a true laptop. It's more of a desktop PC that you can take on vacation. Despite having excellent graphics and a top-notch processor, it's a machine that costs too much, especially if you're going to use it exclusively for gaming.
